The San1 Ubiquitin Ligase Avidly Recognizes Misfolded Proteins through Multiple Substrate Binding Sites
Cellular homeostasis depends on robust protein quality control (PQC) pathways that discern misfolded proteins from functional ones in the cell. One major branch of PQC involves the controlled degradation of misfolded proteins by the ubiquitin-proteasome system. Here ubiquitin ligases must recognize...

Cellular homeostasis depends on robust protein quality control (PQC) pathways that discern misfolded proteins from functional ones in the cell. One major branch of PQC involves the controlled degradation of misfolded proteins by the ubiquitin-proteasome system. Here ubiquitin ligases must recognize and bind to misfolded proteins with sufficient energy to form a complex and with an adequate half-life to achieve poly-ubiquitin chain formation, the signal for protein degradation, prior to its dissociation from the ligase. It is not well understood how PQC ubiquitin ligases accomplish these tasks. Employing a fully reconstituted enzyme and substrate system to perform quantitative biochemical experiments, we demonstrate that the yeast PQC ubiquitin ligase San1 contains multiple substrate binding sites along its polypeptide chain that appear to display specificity for unique misfolded proteins. The results are consistent with a model where these substrate binding sites enable San1 to bind to misfolded substrates avidly, resulting in high affinity ubiquitin ligase-substrate complexes. |
